Native American Indian Music



Native American Dance Steps by Bessie Evans,

Native American Dance Steps by Bessie Evans,
This well-researched book provides details of the varied steps that certain groups of Native Americans have used to express their dance ideas--from skips, jumps, and hop steps, to an Indian form of the "pas de bourree. Similarities to Oriental dances, classical ballet, Spanish and Russian variants, and steps in other dance forms are also considered. Examples are given of Indian dance music, words, and descriptive sounds that accompany this music, and the choreography of certain typical Indian dances of the Southwest. Authentic illustrations by a Native American artist depict dancers, while outline figures characterize steps and postures. An inportant addition to the libraries of anthropologists and students of Native American culture, this classic will be invaluable to ethnomusicologists and choreographers. Unabridged republication of "American Indian Dance Steps, originally published by A. D. Barnes and Company, Incorporated, New York, 1931. Color illustrations on covers. 20 black-and-white illustrations.



Invisible Natives: Myth and Identity in the American Western by Armando Jose Prats,
Invisible Natives: Myth and Identity in the American Western by Armando Jose Prats,
This incisive, provocative, and wide-ranging book casts a critical eye on the representation of Native Americans in the Western film since the genre's beginnings. Armando Jose Prats shows the ways in which film reflects cultural transformations in the course of America's historical encounter with "the Indian." He also explores the relation between the myth of conquest and American history. Among the films he discusses at length are Northwest Passage, Stagecoach, The Searchers, Hombre, Hondo, Ulzana's Raid, The Last of the Mohicans, and Dances With Wolves. Throughout, Prats emphasizes the irony that the Western seems to be able to represent Native Americans only by rendering them absent. In addition, he points out that Native Americans who appear in Westerns are almost always male; Native women rarely figure into the plot, and are often portrayed by white women rendered "Indian" by narrative necessity. Invisible Natives offers an intriguing view of the possibilities and consequences -- as well as the historical sources and cultural origins -- of the Western's strategies for evading the actual portrayal of Native Americans.
